the Mexican Hat Dance.

TopSubj: How
Long Does The USA Have? (S569b)

About the time our original thirteen
states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander
Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University
of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the
Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier:

"A democracy is always temporary
in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent
form of government.

A democracy will continue to
exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote
themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.

From that moment on, the majority
always vote for the candidates who promise the most
benefits from the public treasury, with the result that
every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal
policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.

The average age of the world's
greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has
been about 200 years.

During those 200 years, those
nations always progressed through the following sequence:
